Getting Started
Sometimes the first day of school is an unsettling experience for the child.  Most children accept the change without problems; however, a few may cry and be unhappy.  Please come to open house, visit your child’s room and bring his/her supplies and leave the supplies at school. I look forward to working with your child.  If you have questions, please do not hesitate to ask. 

Dress Policy
Students should come to school in clothes that are neat, clean, and comfortable. Always remember to send your child dressed appropriately for the weather. Please make sure your child carries an extra change of clothes in his or her backpack.

Arrival Time
Arrival time is at 8:00 for the morning group and 12:00 for the afternoon group. Pick-up time is at 11:00 and 3:00. We appreciate you being on time for picking up your child.

Always be sure to sign your name at arrival time and pick-up time.

Parties
Birthday
Your child's snack day will be scheduled on or as close to his or her birthday as possible. If you have questions about possible snacks, please ask your child's teacher.

Classroom Parties
During the year, we will have four classroom parties. We will have a fall party, winter party, Valentine's Day party, and Easter Party. We follow the school board guidelines and only serve store purchased items. No home-baked items will be served. Information concerning the parties will be sent home in the weekly newsletters as the party date as approaches.
